2024: 04/24-25 Whimsy in the Round: Fiber Clay Fantasies on Gourd Armatures, with Darlene Saucedo

April 24 & 25, 10am-4pm daily

Embark on a two-day escapade into the enchanting world of Fiber Clay and gourds with our "Whimsy in the Round" workshop! Imagine a space where your hands shape laughter and personality out of the humble gourd, transforming it into a character that's as quirky and endearing as your imagination allows. This is not just a class; it's a creative journey where your gourd becomes the backbone for something magical.

We'll dive into a treasure trove of texturing techniques, armed with clay tools that are just itching to etch out your vision. Under your fingers, watch as your creation sprouts personality and charm, with textures that tickle the fancy and colors that capture the soul. From sealing to painting, each brushstroke will add life to your character, and when it comes to finishes, we've got the perfect sheen to make your creation shine.

And what's a whimsical character without a little sparkle? Embellishments await to adorn your piece, the final flirtatious wink to your artistic muse. All materials are on us, so you can focus on the fun without fretting the details.

Don't forget to dress for a date with creativity; things will get messy as we mold, paint, and play. And when the clock chimes one, we'll take a pause for an hour, retreating from our studio for a well-deserved lunch break before we jump back into our world of whimsy.

Join us and mold a smile onto the world, one gourd at a time. Let's get our hands dirty and our hearts light with laughter and art!
